Kenya landslide toll rises amid flash floods

Kenya’s death toll from a western landslide rose to 26 after four more bodies were recovered Sunday, just before flash floods forced rescuers to halt work in Chesongoch in the Rift Valley. Interior Minister Kipchumba Murkomen said 25 people remain missing as the military deploys four aircraft to reach communities cut off after roads were washed away. With heavy rains displacing thousands, authorities urged residents to move. The government is airlifting supplies and national exam papers to 15 cut-off schools, covering medical bills for over 30 injured, and resettling dozens.
